FAITH: The Sci-Fi RPG has finally landed on DrivethruRPG! The three main books unlocked during last year’s Kickstarter campaign – the Core Book, its first Sourcebook and a Deluxe Artbook, are now available in enriched PDF for your gaming pleasure.

FAITH: Core Book (NOW 25% OFF for a limited time) is the cornerstone of the FAITH experience, a 440 page-long tome that includes 300 pages of setting filled with adventure seeds, full 2.0 rules of the revolutionary RPG Engine, character creation for four different species, rules to customize and play your own spacecraft, an introductory adventure to get you started and over […] Read more

After the Kickstarter campaign for FAITH, we are back with Dragons Conquer America, a new fantasy setting that will transport you back to the 16th Century, when European invaders and Native Mexica people fight the dark and evil monsters that inhabit the lands.

The March Kickstarter will fund the Core Book of the setting.

AN EARLY TASTE OF THE SETTING

You can download a free quickstart PDF from DrivethruRPG. This file includes the core lore and mechanics and a one-shot introductory scenario.

The Core Book of FAITH comes in the wake of two successful Kickstarters: the Core Set and the Starter Set. So the question is, what is the Core Book and how does it build upon the existing products in the FAITH line?

The short answer is that the Core Book expands on the groundwork of the original Core Set. In the mechanics department, it takes advantage of two years worth of feedback and playtesting. Character creation options have been enhanced and the new vehicle piloting and combat rules make for thrilling action. More importantly, the setting has been overhauled, with more than 200 new […] Read more

Thanks to your help, FAITH: A Garden in Hell has been nominated for 3 Golden Geek Awards, including the coveted BEST GAME and BEST ARTWORK nods. This is a huge accolade for us, a milestone that helps us continue creating the best possible games we can make.

No one really remembers how it began. Studies of old transcripts seem to indicate that the sacred day was a vestigial remnant of long lost human culture, forgotten through the ages, and slowly replaced by the now characteristic pragmatism and cynic attitude of battle hardened human nomads. Survival in a brutal universe has taken its toll, and mercenaries have little use for sweet words and lofty ideals.

Small groups of the original earthlings, however, have preserved some of their old traditions (though they do not remember their origins), taking them along to whichever harsh world […] Read more

One of our longest and most beloved collaborators, Symatt, has kindly created a audiobook version of the original lore of FAITH. Running for almost 3 hours, these files will allow you to immerse in the universe of our game wherever you are. He has also created the audio of the rulebook, and we will upload that shortly.

You can listen to them in the browser (just click play) or download them using the downwards-facing arrow in each file.

We hope you enjoy this and a million thanks to Symatt for his everlasting support.

Forum regular (and long time Burning Prophet) Ancient Man Beast has created and shared two custom weapons for FAITH, called the Monofilament (a whip) and the Schredder (a shotgun). He has uploaded them to Google Drive for your comfort. Here’s the direct link:

He has also shared some tips to print out the weapons and use them in your adventures:

Make sure to download it and print it with a custom scale of 85% to get the right size.

-Print it out on cardstock, cut along the red lines.
-Glue front/backs together using paper tacky glue and put in a sleeve.

Once more, the Burning Prophets have heeden the call of their souls and they have offered us a tribute in the form of house rules to play FAITH. In this case, the muses have acted through Rui Ramalho and have conceived a set of rules to create and run robot characters and NPCs.

So due to the fact that every now and again, one or more of the members of my rag-tag crew of misfits can’t make it to the game, I thought about having a robotic NPC to fill in, someone that would be good at a couple of things, […] Read more

Burning Prophet GhostKill221 has gone the extra mile and has created a brand new playable species for FAITH, including their history, reigning families, special abilities and more. This is an extremely accomplished work that we want you to check out and use in your adventures.

Here’s an excerpt from the lore he has created for the Periak:

“The Perian word for disgrace is Kir’matau, the Perian word for dishonorable death or suicide is Keer’matau, the homonyms aren’t a coincidence. A Perian won’t ask for clarification, to them the only difference is clerical” Xantsu, corvo language expert

It’s been a few weeks since we delivered Faith: A Garden in Hell game to our Kickstarter backers. One of the extra items that was included in the deluxe edition was a resin miniature of a Corvo, one of the playable species of Faith. Since then we have received many pictures of the fully painted miniature, and for that we are grateful. Here’s a collection of the ones we’ve gotten so far (it will be updated with more!):
